Today I’m thinking about Black families whose ancestors built this country. Indigenous communities who were here before it. Immigrants who crossed oceans and borders believing in its promise. And everyone still waiting to feel safe, seen, and free.

A haiku about the American flag

American flag

Is red with blood, blue with tears

white with privilege

Hell yeah brother! We have the Washington-given right to do whatever we want as Americans! No matter your race or religious background, here in america we’re all treated equally. And by that I mean we’re all collectively get fucked in the ass by the giant unsupervised retirement home known as the US government.

Pat Ningewance, a first language Ojibwe speaker, once commented that it was awfully hard to effectively translate a lot of English poetry into Ojibwe because there is no way to say things like “her slim arms” bc the only word in Ojibwe for anything like that basically sounds like “her arms were just skin and bones” while meanwhile there is a whole word that means “beautifully fat” (minogaamo) bc that was way more valued in Ojibwe culture than being skinny, which probably meant you were malnourished

For those expressing interest in Pat's work, I recommend her introduction and translation of Anishinaabe writer George Kenny's poems and short stories, Gaawiin Mawisiiwag Anishinaabeg / Indians Don't Cry, and the book she wrote of her mother's storytelling, Gii-nitaa-aadisooke. The second link goes to the publishing company she owns, which also has one of the best available textbooks for learning Ojibwe, titled Gookom's Language.

sure, rodeo clowns may not have a direct line of descendancy from minoan bull leapers, but you cannot deny the serendipitous nature of the fact that three thousand years of time distance and six thousand miles of physical distance did not stop a group of humans from mirroring another in the thought: “wouldn’t it be sick if i jumped over that big fucking cow”
